Abstract (en)

A coin wrapping machine includes a rotatable disk for feeding coins toward a coin passage by centrifugal force produced by the rotation thereof, a disk motor for rotating the rotatable disk, a transporting belt for transporting the coins along the coin passage, a belt motor for driving the transporting belt, a counter disposed in the coin passage for counting the number of coins having the predetermined denomination, and a coin stacker for stacking a predetermined number of coins whose number has been counted, the coin wrapping machine further including a coin wrapping device having a plurality of wrapping rollers for holding the stacked coins therebetween and rotating them around their longitudinal axis to wind a wrapping material around a circumferential surface of the stacked coins, a wrapping roller motor for driving the wrapping rollers, a pair of crimp claws for approaching the stacked coins from upper and lower locations and crimping upper and lower edge portions of the wrapping material, a crimp claw motor for moving the pair of crimp claws, and a driving speed controller for controlling the disk motor, the belt motor, the wrapping roller motor and the crimp claw motor based on the denomination of the predetermined coins, thereby controlling the rotating speed of the rotatable disk, the driving speed of the transporting belt, the rotating speed of the wrapping rollers and the moving speed of the crimp claws. According to the thus coin wrapping machine, it is possible to stack and wrap coins having different shapes, diameters, thickness and the like efficiently and as desired.
